Happy to report the metrology study of 2nd - 1st C. BC
Ptolemaic bronze coins of
Cyprus has now appeared in
Revue belge de Numismatique aka '
RBN'.
The article is:
A metrological survey of
Ptolemaic bronze coins - III.
Cyprus 1st and 2nd C. BC
RBN, 2020, pp. 227 - 264
Lots of info about the coin
types with some chronology and focus on their relationships and the evolution of their weight/value standards supported by actual data, statistical analyses, graphs, tables, etc. There are also nice
sharp color plate illustrations of most of the
types.
There's a courtesy embargo on posting the PDF of the paper itself for a set time but it will appear eventually on
www.ptolemybronze.comand the abstract of the paper should be up there shortly.
Happy reading to all you quantitative numismatists
